Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Down on the corner of Yonge Street and Dundas, it came to my mind

I sure do love this city, but sure feels like a dead end tonight

[PreChorus]

Then I said to myself, now or never

Gravitation was failing

Light as a feather

Sending myself down a path I just couldn't forsake

[Chorus]

Last night, I thought to myself

Are you the one I cherish above everything else?

Last night, it fell into place

We are nothing but runaways

[Verse 2]

They say that burdens are blessings, but I just don't know anymore

My feelings must've been laced, as I bled on Ontario shores

[PreChorus]

Oh, I know I'll carry those moments forever

But gravitation was failing

Light as a feather

Sending ourselves down a path we just couldn't forsake

[Chorus]

Last night, I thought to myself

Are you the one I cherish above everything else?

Last night, it fell into place

We are nothing but runaways

[Bridge]

Every year holds a lingering sense

Where have I gone?

Every bridge I ever built was welcomed by a storm

[Bridge]

Yeah

[Chorus]

Last night, I thought to myself

Are you the one I cherish above everything else?

Everything else

Last night, it fell into place

We are nothing but runaways

Last night, I thought to myself

Are you the one I cherish above everything else?

Everything else

Last night, it fell into place

We are nothing but runaways, ooh-ooh-ooh

[Outro]

Last night

Last night

Last night

Last night

Last night

Last night
